Robert wrote to mention a CBR Online article which reports that Red Hat has begun testing on Fedora Core 5. From the article: "The next version of Raleigh, North Carolina-based Red Hat's enterprise Linux distribution is not scheduled for release until the second half of 2006 but will include stateless Linux and Xen virtualization functionality and improved management capabilities. Fedora Core 5 Release 1 includes updated support for XenSource Inc's open source server virtualization software, as well as new versions of the Gnome and KDE user interfaces, and the final version of the OpenOffice.org application suite."

Fedora is a test and development Linux distro which is why it rockets through version numbers. It's intended to be a platform to test new stuff out on innocent fools who use it in a production environment and then find out that a few months after they install FC5 they should upgrade to FC6.. Just use Slackware :)
